Stop the seconds' flow
Oh I'm too late
I'm back where I began at the start
I'm caught in their wake
I'll have my due and drag
The rock up the hill
Nothing to lose that's not been lost
I wish the sun anchored still
What I wanted
Disappears in the haze
A speck of dust
Held forever in the dying rays
Breath on the mirror, nothing in sight
The horizons bare but in the night
I missed the pilots light
Control & power
Empires were built in our minds
But it will all go up in a blaze
Only dust
In the dying rays
